Charge the landlord for your wasted time.

I've had similar Glenn, a few months back I got a call from a guy who wanted all his light fittings changed. When I knocked on his door at the agreed time he stuck his head out of the bedroom window and asked if I could come back in an hour.
I told him to shove the job where the sun doesn't shine

well as it was it`s a private let is this one...

and i`v experienced it before as well plenty a time

used to do a lot of ECRs for this fella on renteds and you had no chance of getting them up before 12:00 PM...there we would be 8:00 AM on the nail..not a bloody chance of getting them out of bed...

up at 12:00...get dressed..then it was out for a crate...sit about half the night getting pised n smokin bud...

this is what they did...in fact at one place they snipped the smoke alarms `caus they kept going off`...

whole house stank of bud...

Nor can I mate but I was in a bad mood, I did regret it a little later but then I thought he was probably more trouble than he was worth.

yeah sometimes you just get them bad vibes...so the fact they didn`t show up can be a blessing....but work is work and the end result of all the college we went through n all the rest of it is gettin paid...

come on guys...thats what its all about in the end...payment for works done...whatever those works may be (install, testing, consultancy etc)

then you suck up the grief in return for the eventual payday.

although 2 fans isnt really a job thats worth sucking up for.....

i say we kill them all now , a nice lie down under a concrete patio is what they need.
